Michael Eavis drops Glastonbury 2019 legend slot hint

Michael Eavis has dropped a hint when it comes to who he has in mind for the coveted legends slot at Glastonbury 2019.

The afternoon slot – which takes place on the Sunday of the festival every year – has hosted the likes of Dolly Parton, Shirley Bassey, Tom Jones, and Lionel Richie in the past. It’s now a firm tradition at the iconic Worthy Farm festival.

Michael Eavis was attending the week-long Bath Boules event in Somerset last week, where he hosted a night called ‘an evening with Eavis’. During the event he spoke to attendees about his experiences organising the huge festival, and screened a documentary about the history of Glastonbury.

As Somerset Live points out, one event attendee took the chance to grill Michael Eavis for line-up tips, and asked the Glastonbury boss about the likelihood of a legends slot from Boy George

“I suggested to Michael Eavis last night that you and Culture Club would be perfect for the Sunday afternoon Legends slot,” wrote Jamie Jamal on Twitter. “He thought it was a great idea!”
